The All-Star point guard finished with 33 points and 9 assists, while Al Horford flirted with a triple-double (21p, 10a, 9r). As a team, Boston shot 50.6% from the field and tied a franchise record with 19 three-pointers.

The Wizards played a lot of the game without Markieff Morris, who sprained his left ankle in the second quarter. He’ll apparently be good to go for Game 2.

John Wall (20p, 16a) and Bradley Beal (27p) showed out, but Washington just couldn’t get enough stops down the stretch.

The No. 1 ranked defense in the NBA played like it Sunday afternoon, holding the Clippers to 43.8% from the field and 24% from three. After CP3 dominated the last few games, Utah was able to limit him to 13 points on 6/19.
